Hill sprints are starting to look like hill SPRINTS again! So grateful I GET to do this.
You can live life with a “get to” mentality or a “got to” mentality—the choice is yours every day. Since last summer, I’ve gained so much gratitude for the things I GET to do again. When everything is taken from you and you can’t do anything under your own power, you realize just how much you took for granted.
For me: coaching practice, playing in the yard with my kids, watching them compete in sports—even doing hill sprints.
It wasn’t that long ago that I wouldn’t have been able to walk up that hill. Now, by the grace of God and the willpower to grind every day, I’m back to sprinting.
Stop taking things for granted and appreciate the things we GET to do.
Got divorced because of a multipack of Twirls. Wife had her two and then demanded one of mine. I refused as she was being greedy and it escalated from there. Admittedly we had other issues going on but that was the final straw.
"Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your inner voice. Have the courage to follow your heart & intuition." - Steve Jobs
Don’t depend on anybodies action or inaction to dictate your life. Keep moving, working, growing, and flourishing on your own. At the end of the day you look yourself in the mirror. Focus on you and the rest will fall into place.
